    Koscielny arguably saved us the game, when Dortmund were pushing for a winner he made that brilliant tackle in the box to block what looked like a sure fire goal.

    He's not perfect of course but we all have our favourites and scapegoats.

    If it wasn't for shoddy finishing they'd have been out of sight in the first half. The fact that they didn't score in the first half had nothing to do with good defending.

    i dont buy this defence is shit thing, all of dortmunds pressure, they scored one goal, late on to draw and chesney only really had about 4/5 saves to make. that shows me, they did pretty fucking good

    Considering we had 3 players signed just the other day, playing down the spine of the team, and performing for the most part like a set of individuals rather than a team, I say that's a bloody good result. As has previously been stated Dortmund's goal was a GOTS contender.
    I'd blame the disjointed display on the fact they were signed so late in the summer. Give them 3 or 4 more games and we'll see a composed team at play.
    Chesney did well yet again, I thought Kossie was the better of the CBs considering PM has played Bundesliga all his life (would still have preferred Samba but that's for another discussion). Saying that PM played okay.
    I thought Yossi was better once he was shoved out to the left. He was a nuisance... to us!!! in the centre.
    Gervinho needs to look up once in a while. TW requires a left foot.
    Arteta was tidy without being outstanding. Song played well in the 2nd half, someone must've reminded him he's supposed to be a DM; a shield for the defence, not a dribbler, at half time.

    But all that being said it was a good result.
    Formerly rockyrocky... the other one

    In the 2nd half, the rest of back four was great IMO. Very unlucky with their goal.

    and based on chesneys performances so far this season, and de gea valued at 18m, i value chesney at least double that. he has been exceptional, calm, collected and makes sure he gets the ball. number one for years to come and he will be the best keeper in the world one day

    Pretty much, in the final third Dortmund were awful tonight, generally very poor finishing and shooting and at times overplaying.

    I do think we battled hard but we were pretty lucky their finishing was way off as well.
